About Rakuten

Rakuten is a cash-back and coupon website for online shoppers. Members click through from Rakuten to a partner retailer, shop as normal, and later receive a percentage of the purchase back. The service was known as Ebates until it was renamed after Japan's Rakuten group bought it. Its domain has been registered since 1997. The site publishes about, careers, help and contact pages and offers an iOS app, along with profiles on the main social networks. Cash back depends on the retailer recording your purchase, which can fail if you use a coupon code not listed on the site, have an ad blocker running, or switch devices partway through. Take a screenshot of your order and the advertised rate, since rates change often. Read the terms on when cash back becomes payable, as stores can take weeks to confirm an order, and returned items usually cancel the reward. If you install the browser extension, check what browsing data it collects and adjust its permissions to suit you.
